<p>doing a show at Barnard Castle, we were the assault force and camped in the outer bailey, the defenders were inside the castle proper behind a 70ft ditch and good walls.<br />
Went to the pub on the Saturday night, came back around midnight pretty steaming, someone thought loading the trebuchet with water balloons was a good idea.. </p>
<p>Picture the scene, the Clarence Household sat around a roaring fire drinking heavily - when silently, out of the night sky drops a perfect shot..</p>
<p>..right into the fire <img src="http://singletrackworld.com/forum/my-plugins/bbcode-buttons/default/icon_biggrin.gif" title=":D" class="bb_smilies" alt=""/> </p>footflaps on "Somebody took a shot at me with a trebuchet today"http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/somebody-took-a-shot-at-me-with-a-trebuchet-today#post-5452682

<p>I've been firing flaming hay bales since I was 11, even got as far as competing at local legion level, and never once saw someone injured by one. Occasional we had a singed tunic, but that was about it.
